Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

    This is a beautiful controller. Great build, heft, back button placement, swappable buttons, etc. The big issue for me was that the A button got stuck on three different controllers almost immediately. It was bad enough that I couldn't keep this controller and returned for a razer wolverine ultimate. I had purchased microsoft complete as well but after thinking it over the chances seemed too high that my replacement (after warranty period) would probably have the same A button issue. I didn't want to risk it for such an expensive controller. The overall build and comfort is so great on this controller but the A button issue is a huge disappointment and seems simple enough for microsoft to address. It is a shame they can't figure that part out.

    Not as pricey as the full elite controller, but has the same great build quality and heft with the option to add accessories later. Feels good in the hand, can be customized with the app, and has an awesome color scheme. I love it!

    I'm on my second replacement so far. The first one had issues with the A button getting stuck after frequent presses. My second one has issues with the Y button registering. I would highly recommend avoiding this controller at all costs until Microsoft finds a fix

    This is the most recent release of the Elite Series 2, but sadly still has the same A and Y button problem, where you have to press the buttons carefully for them to respond. Not a manufacturing defect but a characteristic on this controllers.
